I noticed this issue affects my system mentioned above under WinXP too.
Even more with WinXP.

So I think this whole "bug" is hardware -related. This bug is not to
blame Linux.

I used WinXP to show animated movies to my kids as video quality is
better with WinXP. Videos played without a glitch, but after that my
wife surfed the internet using Firefox and XP, and black 1 second blinks
appeared at approximately 5 minutes intervals.

So, hardware related. I will come back to tell if this is a problem with
DisplayPort as I imagine.
